Looking at get_order(), it seems we get 3 after get_order(32768) since
it accepts the size of block.
/**
* get_order - Determine the allocation order of a memory size
* @size: The size for which to get the order
...
define get_order(n) \
( \
__builtin_constant_p(n) ? ( \
((n) == 0UL) ? BITS_PER_LONG - PAGE_SHIFT : \
(((n) < (1UL << PAGE_SHIFT)) ? 0 : \
ilog2((n) - 1) - PAGE_SHIFT + 1) \
^^^
) : \
__get_order(n) \
)
And such large memory size will cause the underflow of reference
bias, and make refcount of page chaos, since reference bias will
be decreased to negative before the allocated memory is used up
Do you have reproducer for this issue?
Thanks
so 32KB memory is safe choice, meanwhile, remove a unnecessary
check
